Legal claim for fault in contracting India- unlike common law of US applied in

Europe Civil Law system- required in India


Unlike the U.S. common law system, the European civil law system
allows a legal claim of fault in contracting, based on the implied duty
of both parties to act in good faith during contract negotiations. The
terminating party can be liable for damages, especially where the
terminating party knowingly allows the other party to incur expenses in
order to be able to perform their side of the contract, and where there
has been clear intent to enter into a contractual relationship.
